Hi Guys/Girls,

Very happy to say I have finally put the Faux Suade on my doors, haha it's only taken a year.

I couldn't take photos as my phone was flat so it was inside charging.

I will take some pics tomorrow during the day.

It was pretty simple (for me),

It's just as simple as taking out the door card and removing the piece that I covered.

All you need to remove the door card and the section I covered is a Phillips head screwdriver and a plastic trim wedge, you can use a flat head screwdriver but you will scratch your door card.

All I used to cover the door was Black Faux Suade from eBay a stanly knife and scissors, I think it cost about 15/20 dollars from memory and that was plenty to door the four section of the door card and the two section on the front door.

I know that may not make sense without pics but I'll put some up tomorrow.

On a side note, you can replace it instead of covering it with a wrap or suede or what ever.

Some Camry models have this section in silver or wood grain if that's what you'd prefer.

And the piece above is also available on different models aurion and Camry in silver, black and wood grain.

Very nice! I like it! Those pannels in my car are getting worse over time! Have you got a write up on this or anything?

I have only got what's above, but happy to help if you need it.

It's not to hard, if you can get your door cards off without breaking them you will be fine.

The hardest part I found was getting the fabric on without sticking itself together.

Once you get the hang of it it's easy.

What are you planing for yours?

I'd like to do what you've done.. But right now im chasing a set of Presara wheels and some coil overs - Changing back to stock standard with a bit of lowering.. Right now I have a failry decent Boston Accoustics/Sound Stream audio system to be installed. Also possibly changing to an after market Alpine double din DVD/Nav system.. but the idea of a bmw e92 335i coupe is always on my mind lol

MrMeToo: that sounds great, can't wait to see your pics and updates.

Kanmuri: what do you mean by its marking?

Do you have shade too or is it still the plastic?

Could you upload a pic showing the problem?

Thanks
